Answer:

[tex](5,5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left \{ {{-8x+7y=-5} \atop {-4x+8y=20}} \right.[/tex]

[tex]\left \{ {{-64x+56y=-40} \atop {28x-56y=-140}} \right.[/tex] <-- Multiply top by 8 and bottom by -7 so y can be cancelled out

[tex]-36x=-180[/tex]

[tex]x=5[/tex]

[tex]-4x+8y=20[/tex]

[tex]-4(5)+8y=20[/tex]

[tex]-20+8y=20[/tex]

[tex]8y=40[/tex]

[tex]y=5[/tex]

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is [tex](5,5)[/tex]
